Some Dodger Art at Hunt Auctions - Koufax, Drysdale and Fazzino's 'Ebbets Field of Dreams'

Hunt Auctions is going to have a very busy November. Not only are they running their regular internet/phone auction (that I feature in this post), but they also have their 11th Annual Live Auction at Louisville Slugger Museum and Factory concluding in November. I'll talk a bit about the Louisville Slugger Museum later this week. For now, let's take a look at some interesting Dodger artwork available through their internet/phone auction.

Below are a couple of 'folk-art' handmade marionettes of Dodger players. They are 15" tall. Who made them and when they were made is not known. All I do know is that it's unique and would look great in a vintage Dodger display case. Check out the auction here.

Below are a couple of hand-painted baseball by an artist named Gary Guerra. I am not familiar with Mr. Guerra, but he does some great work. As you can see he borrows a style reminiscent of legendary Baseball 'folk-artist' George Sosnak and artist Monty Sheldon. Below is a Sandy Koufax ball.

This is fantastic. American pop artist Charles Fazzino created this 3-D piece entitled 'Ebbets Field of Dreams.' It is a silkscreen serigraph, measures 16" x 11" (27" x 23" framed) and is numbered "86/400DX". Check out the auction here. You can also check out his website here. Fazzino also has a piece for Dodger Stadium called 'Go Dodger Blue' that is worth checking out.
